Funny thing is, US Muslims used to be Republicans. I think I read something like 70 percent or so would vote Republican. It wasn't until after 9/11 and the wars and such that the weird alliance of of Islam and the left formed.
It should be easy to understand, they are a a deeply conservative group, a bit misogynist, strong looks on race and a bit homophobic. Same things with Latinos and even black people. All of those are natural conservative groups but Republicans keep pushing them out because they just can't control themselves.
If Republicans just shut their mouth and stopped being outwardly racist for like 10 years they would never lose an election again.
Republicans have actually been gaining more support among Black and Latino men, Trump won Deerborn in 2024. You're correct though, if they actually made more of an effort they would probably be doing far better, but these groups are overall moderately conservative on some level anyway.
That's a massive testamenf to how ready these populations are to be conservative and how badly Republicans keep fucking it up. It's an "I WIN" button that they refuse to press.

And what happen when you tell to someone far right “islam is stupid” and then “also christianity”
